Yeah the Chinese totally have a really good history with being completely open and giving lol. The Chinese government totally has not been hacking into American and Western fortune 500 companies for the past few decades stealing R&D and tech to use for themselves. The Chinese also totally do not steal hundreds of billions of dollars of IP from America annually. Totally not something they would do!

the power is not with the people (us) but with the people in power (corpos and politicians). We (they) can enact any laws we (they) want.

that seems more like a musician with poor skills and mismanagement VS piracy had anything to do with their lacking career. Piracy is awesome!

highly doubtful if it was your career and you are just starting

probably would make more $ from it if you were a YouTuber or TikTok creator and did "watchmaking" content.

I'd just like a lil bit of side money. For example, an extra $1000/m goes a long way imo.

I dont need 6 figures, just a lil bit.

Its kinda odd how a lot of the major tech companies have self censored emojis like they are some savior of the planet for doing so.

For example the gun emoji by turning it into a water pistol instead of a real looking firearm handgun lol.

WOW THEY SURE CAUSED COUNTLESS LIVES TO BE SAVED W THAT ONE SINGLE MOVE!

There is but the FBI is horrible at responding to cybercrime. They have IC3 but its basically useless. They arent going to help or even contact you if you report a crime to them.

They are also simply too expensive that's why no one takes them imo.

Why spend $2,500-$5,000 and your trip takes ~30+ hours when you can spend $650 and get there in a few hours via flying
